Frequently asked questions about cloaking.dot
For crypto payments, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
Is cloaking.dot recognized by web browsers and DNS?
Yes. Because .PAY is a live top-level domain in the root DNS, browsers resolve cloaking.dot like any other address. There is no special plugin or setting required to visit cloaking.dot. The Amazon Registry Services infrastructure keeps it routable worldwide.
Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for online checkout?
Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.
When should I lock in a name instead of exploring past cloaking.dot?
Lock in a name instead of exploring past cloaking.dot once you have a clear, available, brandable match for cloaking.dot and further searching only adds noise. domain.pay lets you pre-order the moment you decide. Pre-order when ready at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now when choosing donate.pay?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Availability is checked live and re-verified before payment. Pre-orders are first-day registration attempts — registration is not guaranteed; 100% credit toward another domain (or 80% cash refund) if unsuccessful.
